Middleweight fighters Rob Kimmons and Chris Camozzi are the latest victims of the UFC's roster purge.

MMAjunkie.com (UFC blog for UFC news, UFC rumors, fighter interviews and event previews/recaps | MMAjunkie.com) today confirmed Kimmons' release with a source close to the fighter.

Camozzi confirmed his release on his official website.

Kimmons (23-7 MMA, 3-4 UFC) leaves the organization after a three-year and seven-fight run in the world's largest MMA promotion. The 30-year-old signed with the organization with a 20-3 record and went 3-4 in the UFC. His release followed back-to-back losses to Kyle Noke at UFC 122 and Dongi Yang at UFC on Versus 3.

Camozzi (14-4 MMA, 2-1 UFC), a cast member on "The Ultimate Fighter 11," opened his UFC career with decision wins over James Hammortree and Yang. However, a UFC 127 loss to Kyle Noke prompted his release.

"According to the UFC the issue is less about my performance (they offered to give me a recommendation) and more to do with an overloaded roster and not enough fights for us under contract," Camozzi wrote. "This has nothing to do with the recent merger."

Looks like losing to Noke guarantees you your walking papers.

Noke's last three opponents - Josh Bryant, Rob Kimmons, Chris Camozzi.

And Camozzi lost that fight to Yang...stupid split decision.

No, go back and read that it was about two other fighters that got cut. This was actually posted first, then that article. This article only mentioned the two fighters in the thread title. The other article had the other two fighters...hence why there were two different thread titles.
